Abstract
The use of generative artificial intelligence by adolescents is shifting some of their learning, information seeking, creativity and communication towards the family environment. This article aims to develop a pedagogical framework for parental mediation that protects the child without reducing their digital autonomy to obedience or supervision. A critical narrative review of recent studies on the family and artificial intelligence, research on parental mediation and digital literacy, and international documents on children’s rights and competences for artificial intelligence is used. The analysis is organized around four strategies: active mediation, co-use, restriction and supervision. The literature shows that dialogue that explains the accuracy, privacy, authorship and limits of the system has more lasting pedagogical value than covert control. Co-use creates opportunities for modeling verification and critical reasoning, while restriction remains necessary when the risk is immediate, but must be proportionate, transparent and reviewable. On this basis, a five-step cycle is proposed: assess the context, discuss, co-determine, practice, and review. The cycle links protection to the gradual development of the adolescent’s ability to control resources, protect personal data, declare the help received, and seek support. The article argues that the family, school, and public institutions should use common criteria and concrete examples, not just warnings. The framework provides a conceptual basis for family education programs and for future research in the Albanian-speaking context. The main conclusion is that good mediation is not measured by the quantity of control, but by the quality of dialogue, the transparency of rules, and the increase in self-regulation.
